Re: Petitions
Lai I have just signed the petition. It all makes for very sensible reading. It is quite worrying that rats are becoming more resistant to pesticides and are needing stronger and newer one to kill them. Its the same effect with human antibiotics, over use of them breeds resistance. It is not nice to think of any animal bleeding to death and thats how the rats will succumb to death but for the beautiful barn Owl who is in itself a pest controller and part of the natural countryside clean up, it is despicable that they are dying this way.
I really hope that changes will be made and speedily for the sake of the Barn Owl.

Re: Petitions
I agree LW, and Oddy's right new laws about Rat poison need to be introduced.

Re: Petitions
There was a small piece on BBC Breakfast Time this morning, about how the number of Barn Owls have plummeted . !0 yrs ago there were 10,000 breeding pairs, the number now is believed to have dropped to 1,000. There was a 300% drop in numbers last year, and the recent floods, and rains have not helped their survival chances this year. Plus the loss of rough, grass habitat in farmers fields, that affects the number of voles, and mice, also the number of barns that have been converted into dwellings, so as to be no use to the Barn Owl. They need a dry roost to protect their feathers which are really badly affected by rain, also in the rainy conditions we've been having means that they cant hunt. Added to which is the affect by poisons being used in the Countryside. Really sad news for these iconic British Owls

Act now for circus animals
We believe that the Westminster Government has turned its back on wild animals in the circus and no longer intends to deliver on their promise of a ban. Which is the only way to truly safeguard the welfare of wild animals.
Without this ban there’s nothing to prevent circuses acquiring more wild animals and more species. Even since the ban has been going through Parliament, four tigers (one has since died) and two lions have been imported into the country for performance.
